Inventor: KAUFMANN JAMES R
IPC: B60R21/16
Filed: 1997-03-27
Abstract: A vehicle occupant inflatable air bag restraint and a
method of inflating such an air bag. The air bag has a face
panel, a rear panel (12) and two internal hinged flaps (24,
26) all of impermeable material. The rear panel (12) has
two large vents (18, 20) internally covered with screen
material (22). A first end of each flap (24, 26) and one
end of a tether are sewn (32) to the base panel (12)
adjacent an inflation gas inlet (16) thereof. The second
end of each flap (24, 26) is detachably sewn to an
intermediate position of the tether and the other end of the
tether is sewn to the face panel. Only if full deployment
occurs will the flaps become detached from the tether and
block the vents (18, 20) except for small areas defined by
holes (28) in the flaps. Incomplete deployment results in
the full area of the vents (18, 20) being available for air
bag venting.

Abstract: A nonaqueous electrolyte comprising a ternary solvent
system preferably including a linear ether mixed with a high
permittivity solvent and a low viscosity solvent, is described.
This electrolyte is useful for activating an alkali metal/solid
cathode electrochemical cell of the kind that typically powers
implantable medical devices. The new electrolyte provides
improved cell capacity under high current pulse discharge
applications while decreasing cell swelling by about 20% in
comparison to conventional nonaqueous organic electrolytes
consisting of propylene carbonate and dimethoxyethane as the
solvents.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed for measuring resistance of an optical
member to deterioration caused by exposure of the optical member to short-wavelength
light (e.g., intense ultraviolet light such as produced by an excimer
laser). An exemplary embodiment comprises a light source that emits a pulsatile
laser beam, a first lens system for shaping the beam, and a second lens system for
adjusting beam intensity. Downstream of the second lens system is a beamsplitter
that produces a measurement beam directed to the optical member and a reference
beam directed to a light sensor. A photo-acoustic sensor is placed adjacent the
optical member to detect photo-acoustic signals generated in the optical member in
response to pulses of the measurement beam irradiated on the optical member.
The photo-acoustic signals can be analyzed to obtain a statistic pertaining to the
optical condition of the optical member.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for imaging a
scene comprising an optical reader and a specially
structured symbol configured complementarily with the
reader so that when the reader reads the symbol, the reader
reads image data in an image data reading region. The
image reading instruction symbol of the system may include
indicators for controlling various aspects of the image
reading process such as the dimension of the image capture
region, the relative position of the image reading region.
If the image reading instruction symbol is of a type whose
actual size, orientation, and distortion can be determined,
scaling, orientation, and distortion characteristics
determined from the image reading instruction symbol can be
used to improve the image reading process. A feedback
feature may be included in the reader for indicating to a
user whether the reader should be moved in order to improve
image reading.

Abstract: The invention concerns a current-to-voltage transducer (400) with an input (414), at which a first inductance (L420. 1) is connected. The first inductance (L420. 1) is connected to a first terminal (426) of a primary coil (TP7) of an isolation transformer (TR) via a capacitor (422) and a diode (424). The second terminal (428) of the isolation transformer (TR) is connected to the output (416), whereby a junction point (430) between a first inductance (L420.1) and a capacitor (422) is connected to the output (416) via power switchgear (T7) and whereby a junction point (440) between a capacitor (422) and a diode (424) is connected to the output (416) via a series connection of a second inductance (420.2) and a measuring element (444).

Abstract: A backlit transmissive liquid crystal display including non-linear resistive thin
film diodes (TFDs). Select address lines on the active substrate provide both
conventional address line functionality, as well as acting as one of the electrodes for
each thin film diode. Two such diodes are provided in each pixel in certain
embodiments. Still further, black matrix material is provided between the aforesaid
address line material and the substrate so as to form rows of stacks on the active
substrate. The thin film diode semi-insulating material, the address line material, and
the black matrix material are patterned together in a single step to form elongated
rows (or columns) on the active substrate. In such a manner, the display has reduced
ambient light reflections, and reduce photosensitivity. Furthermore, because the pixel
electrode, which also functions as the top TFD electrode in each pixel, overlaps both
the select lines and portions of the color filter, a high pixel aperture ratio of at least
about 70% is provided. The TFDs may be MIM diodes in certain embodiments.

Abstract: In an individual-spindle-drive type multiple twister that directly employs separate
motors to drive the spindle shafts of each twisting unit, when a spindle is inserted
into the housing during motor assembly, a rotor and a stator may attract each other
and adhere to each other, and this attraction may prevent the spindle shaft from
being correctly inserted into a target bearing, thus making it difficult to assemble the
motor. Each spindle shaft 4 is, therefore, rotatably supported by bearings 27a and
28a mounted onto upper and lower supporting members 27 and 28. The distance A
between the lower end of the rotor magnet 32 of the drive motor 10 fixed to the
spindle shaft 4 and the lower end of the spindle shaft 4 is longer than the distance B
between the upper end of the stator coil 31, which is fixed to the housing 34 of the
drive motor 10, and the bearing 28a of the lower supporting member 28. In addition,
the tip 4 of the spindle shaft 4c is tapered to facilitate insertion.
